Can anyone work out if they were ever married before or used it as an excuse for not marrying until they had finished having children?
Also who they are. There is a George Cross in Loughborough in 1841 that I think is him living on the outskirts of Thorpe Acre and a Richard and Elizabeth living in Thorpe Acre who could be his parents but I can't make any connection.
Thanks for your patience
